Chapter 90: 89 We must show her a lesson!
"Sharp-tongued, I’ll see if you can still be so defiant later!"
Si Tong gave Yun Ran a cold glance, then turned to walk towards Si Man.
When Yun Jinyang entered, his expression was calm, as if he hadn’t taken Yun Ran’s ’presumptuous words’ seriously at all.
"With big brother here, don’t worry."
[Host, now I understand why the original owner thought Yun Jinyang was the best person in the Yun Family. He really knows how to manipulate people’s hearts.]
Ginsengfruit didn’t say it out loud, but even it, as a system, found it hard to dislike someone like Yun Jinyang.
At this moment, Yun Ran couldn’t agree more with Ginsengfruit’s words.
"I didn’t expect you to come in person, big brother."
Normally, it would have been a big face-saving measure just for the Yun Family to send an assistant over for her.
Now that Yun Jinyang had come in person to support Yun Ran, who could say he wasn’t a good brother.
"As the third young miss of the Yun Family, of course I had to come in person. Even if the Si Family is the richest, the Yun Family doesn’t have to be afraid of them!"
This statement was interesting. Previously, although the Yun Family was ambitious, they hardly ever directly confronted the top ten wealthy families.
Now for a drag like her, not only had they come to support her, but they also implied she didn’t need to hold back. Was the Yun Family planning to take action against the Si Family’s assets?
However, Yun Ran wasn’t very concerned about that. As long as the Yun Family didn’t want her to compromise, she’d naturally be on the same page as the Yun Family.
"Big brother, don’t worry. If I wasn’t absolutely sure, I wouldn’t have been willing to put up so much money as the stake."
Yun Jinyang had already made his calculations on the way here. Although he didn’t know who was backing Yun Ran, the last time at the Du Residence
he had a hunch that the person behind Yun Ran was very strong.
In the future, as long as what Yun Ran did didn’t deal a fatal blow to the Yun Family, no matter what she wanted to do, the Yun Family would stand by her, and incidentally, they would also seek benefits for themselves.
Attacking the Si Family was his spontaneous decision. Since they have offended him and relations have soured, there was no reason to hold back.
Yun Jinyang watched Yun Ran, full of confidence, following the school worker to his VIP seat.
If it weren’t for the crowd watching today, Si Man’s people would definitely have ganged up on Yun Ran one-on-one.
But now, they had to save face and couldn’t really let everyone take the stage.
Soon, they made a decision. They sent out 5 people, best of five rounds. Yun Ran’s side could ask for external aid or she could face them all on her own.
It was a deliberate ploy by the opponent, wanting to wear down Yun Ran’s stamina with a war of attrition while disingenuously allowing her to seek external aid.
If Yun Ran could find outside help capable of defeating these people, today’s competition would not have taken place.
Facing the opponent’s blatant stratagem, Yun Jinyang’s eyes turned ice-cold as he looked towards Si Tong seated opposite him. Without saying it, such a disgusting tactic must have been her doing.
The principal’s face didn’t look good either, as Special Assistant Yan had reported to him earlier that most of the students in the school’s martial arts club were in cahoots with Si Man.
"Go see if there’s a way to find a few helpers for Yun Ran."
Special Assistant Yan nodded. With the principal stepping in, it should be possible to find a few students who wouldn’t fear retaliation to help out.
He quietly slid out of the crowd.
Many were worried about Yun Ran, but to everyone’s surprise, Yun Ran merely glanced nonchalantly at the few people ready to teach her a lesson.
She sounded clearly impatient: "No need for such trouble, all five of you come at me."
Then she checked the time and continued, "It’ll be just in time to go back to class after we’re done, it’s just a small competition after all."
These words were truly irritating.
Even Yun Jinyang harbored the thought that Yun Ran was being too arrogant. Was she not afraid of being humiliated?
The teacher in charge, who was quick to react, feared that Yun Ran was too nervous and had misspoken, rushed to smooth things over.
"Yun Ran is really humorous, she’s easing the tense atmosphere."
"No, I’m not nervous, I’m serious. My time is precious. Of course, if you don’t accept that, then pretend I didn’t say it~"
The opponents knew she couldn’t find external aid, and they wanted to deplete her energy through battle of attrition. It was indeed a blatant scheme.
But just because the opponent made a move, didn’t mean Yun Ran had to play by their rules. She could counterattack, anyone with a temper couldn’t tolerate her contemptuous dismissal.
Si Man, driven to offer a stake of five thousand, was already fuming. Although she was favored, asking for money from her seniors for such a reason had already humiliated her.
And now, Yun Ran was still playing it off as if it were a joke. How could Si Man tolerate that?
"Auntie, this bitch is too arrogant. We must give her a lesson!"
Si Tong was ruthless and decisive in her actions. She could be cruel even to those who were merely in her way without any personal enmities.
Now, a young girl dared to act so arrogantly in front of her. If she restrained her anger, who in Hai City would take her seriously in the future?
She nodded right away, looking towards those who were to challenge Yun Ran.
In a frosty tone, she said, "Since she herself has asked for it, no one can be blamed."
With the Si Family agreeing, the person in charge at the school could only grimly consent. However, they regarded Yun Ran as if she were a fool.
They had seen foolish people, but they never met anyone as foolish as Yun Ran. The people she was facing weren’t just anybody; they were skilled practitioners.
Special Assistant Yan quietly returned, having personally secured three helpers from the martial arts club for Yun Ran. Although they weren’t as tough as the others, they could take some of the heat off her.
Little did he know, he came back only to hear Yun Ran asking to take them all on at once, one against five, making his head spin.
However, seeing the principal’s tense face, he immediately suppressed all complaints.
Both parties had agreed, and the competition officially began.
Yun Ran didn’t even bother to change her clothes; she remained in her school uniform.
Especially when she stood on the stage and the five opponents quickly took their positions surrounding her, Yun Ran seemed even more "amateurish."
"She must be crazy, Yun Ran, not even wearing protective gear, and foolishly standing at the most disadvantageous spot, getting surrounded as she stepped onto the stage."
"It’s like she’s courting death; the ignorant are indeed fearless. She must not have seen our seniors’ previous matches."
"I think she’s just showing off, playing house!"
